Fall Road Trip Essentials

October 16, 2018 by t3atlanta Leave a Comment

It’s quite easy to miss packing all of your fall road trip essentials, especially when you get too excited. I can’t blame you, though. A road trip in fall is a totally different experience. The bland and usual terrain transforms into something new and feels almost like you are visiting an alien planet. Who wouldn’t want that?

But just like any road trip, you have to plan for everything including your essentials. Leaving behind your phone charger or your food cache can turn a dream road trip into a disaster.

Fall Road Trip Essentials Checklist

We understand that it can get a bit hectic when preparing for trips and you might end up forgetting things. That’s why we are coming up with a checklist containing the most important fall road trip essentials that you will need for a memorable road trip.

1. Have the Car Checked

While this should be automatic, we can’t count how many times people would tell stories how their road trips got derailed because of their car breaking down. No, you don’t have to go and get a full-service check. As a matter of fact, a simple maintenance check can get you a long way. Most repair shops already know what to check when you tell them that you are going on a road trip.

2. Bring a Map

It doesn’t matter if it’s a physical map or an app version. You have to make sure you don’t get lost out there, especially if you are not familiar with your destination. There are a lot of apps out there that allows you to download maps for offline viewing in case you find yourself in an area with no service.

3. Stock up on Food

When it comes to fall road trip essentials, food is one of the most important considerations. There are two food types you need to bring when you go on a road trip. First are the snacks that you can eat while driving. While snacks usually serve the purpose of “fun food”, most of them aren’t exactly filling.

There will be moments during the drive when you need real food that could quell your hunger. For those cases, make sure you bring sandwiches, calzones, pies, or burritos in case the next food stop is still an hour away. Also, bring water on your trip in case you find yourself thirsty during the trip.

4. Pack Layers

5. Carry a First-Aid Kit

No, you don’t have to carry a trunkload of gauzes and ointments. As a matter of fact, you only need to prepare a simple first-aid kit that can address any health issue that may arise. For starters, you can bring antibacterial wipes, sanitizers, bandages, and pain medication for a headache or stomachaches.

6. Gadget Essentials

We all need our phones nowadays so we should make sure that we have everything we need to stay connected. Make sure you already packed your phone charger. If available, bring a car phone charger as well so you can recharge your device while on the move. It’s also a good idea to bring a power bank in case you really need a quick charge while on a trek. Lastly, make sure that you have all the necessary accessories and implements for your other gadgets like cameras or drones.

7. Carry Along Some Entertainment

A long drive can get boring fast, especially when you have kids with you. Prepare a list of games and other forms of entertainment for the drive. Bringing along an iPad with popular movies can keep the back seat happy while cruising.

While it’s easy to go and prepare the food, clothes, gadgets, and entertainment for your road trip, getting a good service center for your car might get dicey at times.

T3 Atlanta

Lexus, Infiniti, Toyota, and Nissan Maintenance

In 1994, our founder, Charles Wright, wanted to leave the corporate/professional environment and start his own company. After months of reading business planning books, he decided to establish an auto service company. He recalled reading that auto repair people were the first or second least trusted group of people among service providers, and Charles wanted to provide Atlanta car owners with a trustworthy auto repair shop. He learned how the service business was structured, and opened T3 Atlanta to offer customers an affordable and efficient service company.
